Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 928: 928: Free Food

Chapter 928: Chapter 928: Free Food
Actually, whether someone helped kill zombies outside the wall can be seen at a glance.
Those who killed zombies and the teams were all dirty and visibly exhausted, while Su Jin noticed some people in neat and clean clothes mingling among them to queue up for rations.
“Sorry, we only provide free food to those who helped.”
Su Jin said as she walked over.
Their cover was blown sooner than they expected, but under the gaze of all these people, they were reluctant to leave in disgrace.
“Why not just get our share first and then go help?”
Xue Cai glanced at the long line behind him, unwilling to let it go.
“Then please come back a little later, thank you for cooperating.”
Lu Hao came over and said coldly, fearing that Su Jin might be bullied.
Though his wife was very capable, he didn’t like other men looking at her with such fierce eyes.
As expected, when they saw the towering Lu Hao standing in front of them, the few who mingled in to cut the line were a bit intimidated, and Xue Cai’s tone softened considerably.
“So stingy, and we even bought things from your Heart Talk Convenience Store before…”
“You don’t have to buy.”
Ren Feiyang hated rule-breakers the most and retorted immediately.
“You! Today, I refuse to help you guys, who cares about that food!”
Xue Cai left the queue sulkily, thinking it was just some hard biscuits or thin porridge. If he wasn’t trying to save resources, why would he put up with this?
“I heard they also came from K Province.”
Guo Yang said to Su Jin. There were not many people in the rest area, mainly S City base’s training team and those brought by Tang Xue from B City base, so he had some impression of those he’d seen.
K Province again.
Su Jin nodded upon hearing this. It seemed the situation in K Province wasn’t good lately, with more and more people coming from there.
Lin Cheng and Su Xiangzhe combined their efforts to unload the food for free distribution from the RV, which Su Jin had just taken out from the space. To make everyone believe it was freshly heated, Lu Hao suggested using the cooking-capable RV as a transfer point.
When the white steamer cloth was lifted, rows of plump and white buns appeared before everyone.
“Each person gets five buns, three mutant animal salted eggs, and can also claim five kilos of rice or flour. There’s also meat porridge by the side, ready to be served, and since we’re short on staff, please bring your own containers to serve yourself.”
As soon as Su Xiangzhe finished speaking, the crowd in the line erupted with excitement.
Is it so sumptuous?!
They all thought it would just be some dry biscuits or plain steamed buns, but it turned out to be such a big meal, and the meat porridge is self-serve, meaning it’s unlimited?
These were what Su Jin instructed Huang Yunxiang to tell Lin Yunguo when she went into space. To the Heart Talk Team, they weren’t particularly valuable, but to other Special Ability Users, this could be their food supply for many days.
“Auntie Huang, you make porridge so fast, truly impressive.”
Liao Yifan gave Huang Yunxiang a thumbs-up, always believing she managed all this in such a short time by herself.
“It’s simple, just throw everything into a pressure cooker, no trouble at all. There’re two more pots still cooking.”
Huang Yunxiang replied naturally, almost convincing even herself.
The aroma of the meat porridge made everyone start salivating. Lin Yunguo didn’t just add minced meat from a meat grinder but also corn kernels and vegetables, finishing with a few drops of sesame oil, turning a simple meat porridge into a feast for the senses.
“No need to rush, as long as you’ve helped, we ensure there’s plenty to go around.”
Huang Yunxiang said to those urging people in front to hurry.
However, they soon realized their worry was unnecessary.
“This porridge is so thick, I thought we’d only get soupy broth by the time it’s our turn. No need to rush at all, hahaha.”
“Exactly! Friends in the back, there’s no need to hurry. This porridge is so thick, even if you scoop it with your eyes closed, it’s real and substantial!”
“I couldn’t resist and already ate two buns, and those big buns are genuine, so flavorful!”
“Yes, indeed! And those salted eggs, they’re starting to seep oil, utterly delicious.”
Lin Xiuyuan leaned against the RV window documenting people’s reactions to show Su Jin, who could then share them with Lin Yunguo. Surely, he would be happier than anyone to see it.
Xue Cai and others, who previously left, regretted it. How could they know the Heart Talk Team would distribute such lavish food? Had they known, they would’ve killed a few zombies to earn it.
And now they wondered if it’s too late to go out again.
Lin Yunguo knew the family would be distributing supplies outside today, but when he returned from fishing, he found all the buns in the back kitchen gone!
So when Su Jin entered the space again, she found Lin Yunguo eagerly making more buns.
“Is this your current rest area?”
Lin Yunguo and Li Xiuying asked, watching the video Su Jin brought back on her phone.
“Yes, everyone is praising how delicious the food is.”
Su Jin replied with a smile.
“If we’re giving, we might as well give the best. Otherwise, it’s no fun.”
Lin Yunguo was exceedingly pleased, as nothing made him happier than having someone appreciate his food.
“We’ll have to trouble Grandfather over these few days; we should be done in two days.”
Su Jin affectionately coaxed.
“Your grandfather would be disappointed if you didn’t trouble him, and these little machines are really handy, not taxing at all.”
Li Xiuying chuckled, laughing, as the previously laborious tasks of kneading dough and chopping fillings were saved. Now, they could be said to be operating with the speed and vigor of a tiger.
Besides distributing food to the Special Ability Users who helped in the rest area, Su Jin didn’t forget about Tang Xue and Lian Ze either. But she thought she couldn’t just keep giving away buns, and since they emptied out the space’s buns in one day, she directly had Moli call people over to take several pots of Lin Yunguo’s homemade “Lazy Cook Rice” over to them.
The rice contained meat and vegetables, ensuring enough nutrition.
Practitioners in the rest area felt this small wave of zombie tide seemed like a blessing, as besides not having to run around killing zombies, the free meals provided by the Heart Talk Team every day also delighted them.
“Tsk, it’d be nice if this zombie tide lasted a few more days.”
“If I could enjoy this food every day, I’d be willing to fight zombies every day.”
“Get real, if it weren’t for the Heart Talk Team and their Man-eating Flower holding the fort, this rest area might have been uprooted by zombies.”
Several burly men joked on the roadside, but Lu Hao, walking by, did not share their sentiment.
This zombie tide was no accident.
Though only a bit over twenty thousand, nearing thirty thousand came altogether.
